> I haven't used ActiveRecord in quite awhile (been using MongoDB), but it looks like you cannot instantiate a record with attributes that don't exist. I think you have two options here:

Yeah.. I originally had tried your 2nd option... Putting an expectation on
the arguments sent to new made no difference. I just tried it again to verify,
and I still get the same error. Seems so weird to me.
